Project Linus calls all the coverings they receive "blankets" in reference to the Peanuts' character Linus who carried a blanket. I do believe all the blankets in the beginning were made of fleece.

I think, if you are making the item out of love from your heart, it really doesn't matter what someone else calls it. If you are making the item because you want people to praise you for it, then you aren't really doing it for charity and of course you will be annoyed.
